Anything up to a few hundred characters: serial numbers, codes, short notes.

Made in your browser. What you type is never sent to us.

A logo makes the code busier, so always test-scan before you print.

Static codes never expire and never need an account. Once printed, the content cannot be changed.

Tips that save a reprint

  • Shorter text makes a simpler, easier-to-scan code.
  • For a web address, use the Website link tab instead so phones offer to open it.
  • Test with a scanner app that shows the raw text.

Questions

How much text fits?
